The Estates of William and Sarah McGehee, the Historic Dr. Dubs House, Natchez In her 1986 article on the Dr. Dubs House for The Magazine Antiques, noted antiquarian Milly McGehee writes: “Natchez, Mississippi has long been recognized for its wealth of significant nineteenth century residential architecture, preserved primarily through the efforts of many dedicated citizens. Among the latter are my parents, Mr. and Mrs. William Carl McGehee...” Over the course of the second half of the 20th century, Natchez natives William and Sarah McGehee restored three historic houses in the Natchez area: Cottage Gardens, Magnolia Hill Plantation and Dr. Dubs House, a Greek Revival townhouse built in 1852. Dr. Dubs House was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978, the same year that the McGehees received an award of merit from the Mississippi Historical Society for “an exemplary restoration of an historic house that is also their Home.” To furnish these beautifully restored homes, the McGehees amassed a collection of period American furniture and related decorative arts ranging from the mid-eighteenth century to the mid-nineteenth century, with an emphasis on objects made in the lower Mississippi River Valley. Over the years the collection has been curated by their antiquarian daughter. Neal Auction Company is pleased to present select objects from this fine collection. Ref. McGehee, Milly. “Living with antiques: The Dr. Dubs house in Natchez, Mississippi”, The Magazine Antiques, January/February 1986, pp. 268-273.

D. Benjamin Kleinpeter, Sr. Collection D. Benjamin Kleinpeter is descended from early settlers of Louisiana. The first Kleinpeters arrived in 1774 at Bayou Manchac . They moved to higher ground not long after, receiving in 1787 a Spanish land grant for four hundred arpents in what is today East Baton Rouge Parish. Mr. Kleinpeter ‘s interest in antiques began with Louisiana-made duck decoys and grew to include Louisiana paintings, furniture and related decorative arts, notably Newcomb pottery. Objects from the collection have been published in Furnishing Louisiana, Newcomb Pottery & Crafts, Collecting Passions and The Magazine Antiques. Neal Auction Company is pleased to offer select objects from the D. Benjamin Kleinpeter collection. Ref. Bacot,H. Parrott et al. Furnishing Louisiana; Poesch, Jessie. Newcomb Pottery & Crafts.

52. Gen Paul (French/American, 1895‑1975), “Vermouth O’ Clock”, oil on canvas, signed upper right, signed, titled, and inscribed “no. 54” en verso, 25 1/2 in. x 32 in., framed. $25000/35000 Provenance: Dr. Robert L. Trahan (1933-2010), Lafayette, LA, acquired France, c. 1975; thence by descent. Note: Gen Paul’s works first gained recognition when he exhibited at the Salon d’Automne and the Salon des Indépendants in Paris in 1920. It was at this point that his work took on a complex mix of Expressionism, Fauvism, as well as the speed and movement of the Futurist-style. Between 1925 and 1929, Paul perfected this style through café and jazz scenes influenced by the famed night life of Montmartre, creating dazzling compositions with zigzags, upturned diagonal planes, and forced perspectives in which the foreground and background are collapsed into the same plane. The effects are as lyrical as the jazz music and urban dynamism of these settings. Paul’s paintings from this period rank among his finest; they are a tour-de-force of bustling space that is clearly visible in the sweeping umbrella and jaunty fence in the café terrace setting of “Vermouth O’ Clock.” As the painting’s title implies, it is cocktail hour; it is also a pun on the French expression cinque à sept (five to seven)— the time to dally with your lover before returning home to your spouse for dinner. What the couple’s relationship is in this painting is as allusive and full of imaginative color as the palette. “Vermouth O’ Clock,” is a theme Paul explored around in the late 1920s, creating at least one other painting by the same title and size of a couple in a café setting divided by a bistro table of drinks. This 1927 canvas, also titled “Vermouth O’ Clock,” is currently exhibited at Galerie Roussard, Paris, the leading specialist on Paul paintings.

53. Emilio Sánchez Perrier (Spanish, 1855-1907), “The Path by a Grove of Trees”, oil on canvas, signed lower right, 17 in. x 24 in., framed. $12000/18000

Provenance: Mme. Dufy; Mr. J. Wise, Geneva; Christie’s, London; Sotheby Parke Bernet, London, Aug. 28, 1970, lot 293; accompanied by Brook Street Gallery, London; invoice and letter dated Oct. 5 and 12, 1970; New Orleans Estate.

Provenance: Acquired c. 1955 in NYC by Dr. Edward J. Gonczy, M.D., Hillside, NJ; thence by descent. Note: Emilio Sánchez-Perrier studied at the School of Fine Art in Seville and the San Fernando School of Art in Madrid before moving to Paris in 1880, where his works were greatly influenced by the Barbizon School and subsequent Impressionists, while studying under the artists Félix Ziem and Auguste Boulard. This composition is distinctly Barbizon in its predilection of the plein air study of natural scenery over the Neoclassical tradition painted indoors as backdrops for dramatic events. Here, the drama is nature; the focal point, much like in the work of Barbizon artist Rousseau, is a grove of craggy trees accentuated by a path “less traveled” along a mountain hollow. In lieu of Barbizon reverse lighting (darker foreground offset by a luminescent background), Sánchez-Perrier plays upon the airier palettes of the Impressionists, visible in the cerulean blue of the sky and the painterly rendering of the lavender flowers as purple dots in a field of Siena brush, to capture the same hazy atmospheric perspective as the Barbizon painters. This landscape is an extraordinary example of the artist’s mature style, which was first recognized at the Paris Salon in 1880, where Sánchez-Perrier exhibited “Seville’s Alcazar Garden,” “Winter” and “Andalusia.” This unique blend of styles held Salongoers spellbound throughout the 1880s and 1890s, and earned Sànchez-Perrier appointments to the Société Générale des Beaux Arts and Seville’s Academy of Fine Arts.

122. Millard Owen Sheets (American/ California, 1907‑1989), “Ladies in the Morning, Hawaii”, 1950, watercolor on paper, indistinctly signed lower right, “Butterfield and Butterfield Auction” label en verso, 22 1/2 in. x 30 1/4 in., framed. $4000/6000 Provenance: Private Collection, Santa Barbara, CA; Butterfield and Butterfield, San Francisco, June 24, 1992, California Paintings, lot 6470; Succession of Charles Duke Zucker (1925‑2014), New Orleans, LA. Note: Initially known as an American Scene painter, Sheets developed his characteristic style with an innovative use of watercolor applied with rich color and precision. He was enlisted for various high‑profile commissions and assignments for the Works Project Administration and service during World War II as an artist in India and Burma for Life magazine. Through his travels and experiences, scholar Janet Blake notes that Sheets developed a new way of capturing “the beauty and dignity of people.” After the war, Sheets embarked on a campaign of worldwide travel. He would visit over 30 countries with his sketchbook and watercolors to paint what he saw in real‑ time, much like a field reporter. In 1950 he spent a year in Hawaii, which at the time was still remote and untouched by economic development. With his unique ability to capture the fleeting moment of time through watercolor, Sheets created a series of colorful landscapes and genre scenes, as seen here. A critic best summarized the artist’s talent, as a “joyful and buoyant response to the picturesque aspects of life…” In “Ladies in the Morning, Hawaii,” the viewer is invited into a colorful, exotic scene with palm trees and azure waters, where women prepare for their daily tasks.

Note: In honor of the centennial anniversary of Hippolyte Petitjean’s birth, a retrospective of his work was organized by Guy Pogu at the Galerie d’ Institut (Exposition du Centenaire d’ Hippolyte Petitjean) in Paris on April 15, 1955. The “Paysage,” offered in this lot, was most likely exhibited at Petitjean’s Centennial Retrospective, since the canvas bears both the iconic “Artist’s studio” stamp and partial exhibition label (“Cent/ Hipp./ 1955,”), which matches the exact wording, font, date, and style as the labels on other Petitjeans exhibited at the Centennial.

Exh.: “Max Weber Discoveries”, Forum Galleries, NY, 1999. Note: The “Max Weber Discoveries” exhibition at the Forum Gallery in 1999 was reviewed by renowned art critic Hilton Kramer, in which he referred to the work offered here: “There are some remarkable moments when Weber’s talent seemed to take fire again – in the pastel ‘Flower Piece’ (circa 1922), for example, which seems to have been inspired by Odilon Redon.”

149. Edgar Degas (French, 1834-1917), “Italian Woman (Femme Accoudée)”, c. 1856-1859, graphite on paper, stamped Degas signature lower left, 9 1/2 in. x 6 1/4 in., framed; accompanied by photocopies of the 1919 Estate of the Artist sale catalogue (Atelier Degas). $15000/25000 Provenance: This drawing’s provenance is as illustrious as its history. It remained in the possession of the artist until his death in 1917, and then was sold during his estate sale in 1919, as lot 85a. At some point, perhaps as early as 1930, it entered the extraordinary collection of Robert Q. Lewis. Lewis, an American radio and television personality, game show host, and actor from the 1940s to the 1960s, was a prodigious art collector, who began his collection at the age of 10 when Picasso signed a drawing for him on a visit to his studio in Paris. From 1964-1970, Lewis bought and sold extensively from Sotheby Parke Bernet auction. This Degas, along with Dalis, Renoirs, Monets, Dufys, and Cézannes, from Lewis’ Collection were sold in May 1968 to a prodigious art collector from New Orleans, and is offered here as part of his Estate collection. Note: This drawing is a rare example of Edgar Degas’ early work, most likely executed during the late 1850s when Degas studied drawing in Italy. With the ambition of becoming a great history painter, Degas moved to Rome in 1856 to study the Renaissance masters after briefly studying at the École des Beaux-Arts. From 18561859, Degas drew extensively following in the footsteps of his Neoclassical mentor Jacques Louis David Ingres, who encouraged him to “draw lines…and still more lines, both from life and from memory, and you will become a good artist.” The drawing, here, of an Italian woman resting on her elbow, belongs to a grand tradition. The composition of catching a peasant in an innocent moment of repose/ reverie was a favorite motif of French artists that by example Camille Corot captured time again in works like “Reverie” at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. While the composition was clearly inspired by Degas’ predecessors, the figure of the woman here recalls the commanding presence of Michelangelo’s sibyls from the Sistine Chapel. The massive grounded form of the Italian woman turned in three-quarters profile within the momentous lines of her robe, is distinctly Michelangelo-esque. Degas’ studies of Italian women were instrumental to the execution of his early masterpiece, “The Bellelli Family Portrait,” which was commissioned in 1858. After his return to France in 1859, Degas often drew upon his Italian sketches while working through the composition of portrait figures. The influence of this sketch is evident not only in the monumental pose of the matriarch in the “Bellelli Portrait,” but also in the masterpieces that followed in New Orleans with the “Cotton Office,” and perhaps most poignantly, in the beautiful study of his mother “Estelle Musson Degas,” a New Orleanean Creole by birth, arranging flowers.

Trahan (1933‑2010), Lafayette, LA; thence by descent. Note: Robert Colescott was an African-American figurative painter who is known for his colorful expressionist paintings that confront the themes of racism, gender and social inequality. In his obituary in the New York Times, esteemed art critic Roberta Smith described him as “an American figurative painter whose garishly powerful canvases lampooned racial and sexual stereotypes with rakish imagery, lurid colors and almost tangible glee.” Born in Oakland, CA, Colescott was inspired by Sargent Johnson, an AfricanAmerican sculptor who worked with his father on the railroad. After studying painting and drawing at the University of California, Berkeley, Colescott traveled to Paris to study with Fernand Léger, and was drawn by the city’s racial tolerance and thriving community of African-American artists. Following a sojourn in Cairo, Egypt, he returned to the West Coast, where he became a leading figural painter. Colescott received a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1985; represented the United States at the 47th Venice Biennale in 1997 (the first African- American to do so); and was elected to the National Academy of Design in 1999. He taught for forty-three years as professor of art at the University of Arizona, until his retirement in 1997. His work is in the collections of museums across the country, including The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, MA, Albright-Knox Gallery, Buffalo, NY, and the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis, MN. The work offered here, “All Roads Lead to Rome,” demonstrates his distinctive style of depicting figures and the political and graphic nature of his work. Two Egyptian figures and a row of pyramids frame the background behind a black woman who states “Giaconda! A good Italian name….We do better then!” Colescott paints both biography and history with unwavering humor and honesty.

Provenance: Dr. Robert L. Trahan (1933‑2010), Lafayette, LA; thence by descent. Note: Renowned for his vibrant landscape paintings of southwest Louisiana, Elemore Morgan, Jr. painted primarily “en plein air” in the rice fields of Vermillion Parish. In 1965, Morgan began teaching art at Southwestern Louisiana Institute (now University of Louisiana at Lafayette), where he remained for thirty-two years. His work has been featured in exhibitions nationally and internationally. Morgan’s favored medium was acrylic on shaped Masonite panels, as seen in the luminous painting offered here. The panels were cut by the artist to reflect the landscape and are an important and unique element of his compositions. The painting depicts a vast, open space with a low horizon line, reflecting the artist’s rural upbringing and lifelong love of the saturated color and reflective qualities of the Cajun prairie.

Note: For over thirty years, Australian-born New Orleans artist Simon Gunning has found inspiration in the Louisiana landscape, from bayous and swamps to urban scenes and the Mississippi riverfront. In “Gloria”, he invites viewers to reconsider the traditional bayou scene from his observant and investigative perspective. The large-scale, luminescent color palette and rich surface of this canvas provide a modern take on this quintessential Louisiana subject. His paintings can be found in the collections of the New Orleans Museum of Art, Percent for Art Collection at Louis Armstrong International Airport and the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, as well as in private and corporate collections worldwide.

Note: “Le Petit Chien” represents one of the most important and exciting periods in George Rodrigue’s career, a time in which the artist formed his unique style of depicting the Cajun culture and his work began to garner the critical acclaim that would propel him to worldwide fame - years before a Blue Dog ever appeared on his canvas. By 1974, Rodrigue had committed to “graphically interpret the Cajun culture” with the use of symbolism and carefully developed compositions as seen in “Le Petit Chien.” The oak tree is cropped at the top, creating a small sky and a distant light “referencing the hope of the Acadians to make a home for themselves in a new land.” The timeless figures are dressed primarily in white, glowing underneath the shadows of the trees as though lit from within by their rich culture. In a rare honor for an American, Rodrigue’s “The Class of Marie Courrege” from 1972 was awarded an honorable mention from the Salon in Paris in 1975, prompting the French newspaper, Le Figaro, to dub Rodrigue “America’s Rousseau.” Each year, the Salon presented five awards: first and second place, and three honorable mentions. In Rodrigue’s case, they shipped the certificate to Governor Edwin Edwards, who presented the award on their behalf. Prior to Rodrigue, American artist John Singer Sargent received an honorable mention in 1879 and as with Sargent, the win guaranteed Rodrigue a space in the following year’s Salon, when Rodrigue submitted his “Jolie Blonde” of 1974, the same year as “Le Petit Chien.” Though often imbued with Rodrigue’s sense of humor, these early Cajun works are deliberate and focused depictions of a rapidly disappearing past. With “Le Petit Chien,” Rodrigue most likely based his figures on a photograph from his mother’s album, an item that inspired many of his 1970s Cajun scenes including “The Class of Marie Courrege.” Originally just a few inches in size, the photograph would have been projected onto the 40 x 30 in. canvas, where Rodrigue would then create his landscape around the figures and lock them within the scene with his heavy, thick oil paints. In 1976, Oxmoor House, the Birmingham-based publisher of Southern Living Magazine, approached Rodrigue about compiling an exhibit format book. Excited about the opportunity, Rodrigue overcame several obstacles to write the text and engage a translator for the French text, printed alongside the English. The Cajuns of George Rodrigue became the first book published nationally on Cajun culture, an official White House Gift of State during the Carter administration, and features more than one hundred paintings, including “Le Petit Chien,” with the artist’s description: Here we have a small dog sitting over a small bayou with people all around – standing, sitting, kneeling - frozen. The dog actually became part of the life of the Cajun who always had animals for work and as pets.

An early proponent of American Modernism, Cain aligned himself with the “The Group”, a coalition of artists that included Marsden Hartley, Milton Avery, and John Marin among others. Although engrossed in the avant garde abstraction, Cain developed his own unique style of, “decorative expressionism” which used vibrant color and layered images. A recurrent theme in Cain’s work, especially later in his life, was the Louisiana of his youth – the vibrant streetscapes and festive energy of the Creole State. In “Boatyard at Chauvin, Louisiana,” Cain presents an abstract color-block field of bright hues that leads the eye in various directions settling on the stillness of boats lining the water’s edge.

300. Clarence Millet, A.N.A. (American/New Orleans, 1897‑1959), “Spring at Tunica”, oil on canvas, signed lower right, signed, titled and with partial “Springville High School Art Ass’n., Inc.” label en verso, 25 in. x 30 in., period frame with artist and title plaque. $15000/25000 Provenance: D. Benjamin Kleinpeter, Sr. Collection, Baton Rouge. Note: Clarence Millet painted the environs of New Orleans and Southeast Louisiana for forty-five years. One of the few Southern artists to be elected to the National Academy of Design, Millet worked in an impressionist representational style often with a bright and vibrant palette. In a July 1934 article about him in New Orleanian Magazine, the author writes that Millet “always seems to concern himself with light, the sparkle of the sun on dancing blue waters, the vivid contrast and tonal values of bright landscapes and sweeping vistas.” The painting offered here exemplifies that sentiment and is a fine example of Millet working in his mature style. A beautiful spring day in Tunica, located in West Feliciana Parish, LA, is portrayed by the bright green and yellow hues of the budding foliage. One can sense the warmth of the sun reflected off the verdant grass under the big blue sky. The Mississippi River is visible along the horizon line while a woman stands on the porch of her home in the central composition.

302. William Aiken Walker (American/South Carolina, 1838‑1921), “The Cove at Ponce Park”, 1895, oil on academy board, signed and dated lower left, 6 1/2 in. x 12 1/2 in., giltwood frame. $15000/25000 Provenance: D. Benjamin Kleinpeter, Sr. Collection, Baton Rouge. Ill.: Trovaioli, August P., and Roulhac B. Toledano. William Aiken Walker Southern Genre Painter. Gretna: Pelican Publishing Company, 2008, p. 102, pl. 17. 301. Knute Heldner (Swedish/New Orleans, 1875‑1952), “Horse and Buggy Ride, Bay Street, St. Augustine, Florida”, oil on canvas board, signed lower right, inscribed “166 Bay Street” en verso, 16 in. x 20 in., framed. $6000/8000 Provenance: D. Benjamin Kleinpeter, Sr. Collection, Baton Rouge. Note: Bay Street was later renamed Avenida Menendez and runs along the historic part of St. Augustine and the bay.

Note: William Aiken Walker began the winter of 1895 in St. Augustine, FL. He stayed at the Magnolia Hotel and had a studio in a shop nearby. Later in the winter, Walker went further south on the Altantic coast to Ponce Park (now called Ponce Inlet), a quiet fishing community south of Daytona. Each winter, Walker spent many weeks at the Pacetti House, a boarding house run by the Pacetti family, in Ponce Park. It was a quiet and special place for Walker where he could spend his days sketching and painting the distinctive Florida landscape. The 1895 painting offered here shows the coast line at Ponce Park. A sailboat is moored on the beach while a group of figures stands on the shore fishing in the inlet. The majority of Walker’s Florida scenes are devoid of figures and depict only the natural landscape. This composition is rare for its inclusion of a large group of people active in an outdoors pursuit. Painted with crisp detailed brushwork, Walker depicts the cerulean blue water with colorful reflections of the figures on the shore. Ref.: Seibels, Cynthia.

303. Theora Hamblett (American/Mississippi, 1893‑1977), “School Children Getting Drinking Water”, 1951, oil on masonite, signed and dated lower right, titled lower center, 24 in. x 18 in., framed. $12000/18000 Provenance: Purchased from the artist, Oxford, MS; thence by descent. Note: Theora Hamblett began painting in 1950 at the age of fifty-five. She took an introductory course in painting at the University of Mississippi in Oxford that year, but was essentially a self-taught painter who developed her own distinct pointillist technique. Thanks to Dusti Bongé, the Abstract Expressionist painter from Biloxi, Hamblett’s work became known to Betty Parsons, the influential modern art gallerist from New York. Parsons gave Hamblett a solo exhibition in 1958 and encouraged a patron to buy Hamblett’s favorite painting, The Golden Gate, for the collection of the Museum of Modern Art in NY. Hamblett enjoyed a growing reputation for the rest of her career. The work offered here is a very early painting from 1951. Typical of her landscapes and depictions of children’s games, this composition has several trees that fill the upper part of the composition. Ablaze with autumn foliage, they are rendered in Hamblett’s unique style. In the foreground, four children fill pails of water from a well which they will bring back to the house at the top of the hill. Some of Hamblett’s favored subjects are children playing games and scenes of rural life in Mississippi. Ref.: Black, Patti Carr.

The mahogany Campeche chair seen here is based on a well-known prototype which descended in a New Orleans family. 309. Rare Lower Mississippi Valley Cherrywood Armoire, early 19th c., molded cornice, pair of paneled doors, spurred and scalloped skirt, tall cabriole legs, fitted interior with shelves and belt of drawers, h. 82 1/2 in., w. 54 1/2 in., d. 21 3/4 in. $4000/6000

Provenance: Milly McGehee Antiques; Estates of William and Sarah McGehee, Dr. Dubs House, Natchez, MS. Note: The construction of this distinctive armoire, with pegged joining, a fixed case, shaped skirt and cabriole legs, indicates a Franco-Caribbean cabinet making tradition, seen most often in the Louisiana Creole armoires. The use of cherry, pine and poplar on this lot indicates a craftsman working inland with selected North American indigenous woods. An armoire, also of cherry and poplar with un-mitered door stiles (as seen here), from Port Gibson, Mississippi, is part of the Whitecloud collection. Ref.: Holden, Jack, H. Parrott Bacot, et. al.

Rare American Federal Inlaid Cherrywood Corner Cabinet, late 18th/early 19th c., possibly Kentucky, molded cornice, sprig inlaid frieze, paneled doors, shaped skirt, spurred bracket feet, stiles with tulip and vine inlay, stop‑fluted chamfered corners, h. 91 1/8 in., w. 46 5/8 in., d. 21 in. $2000/3000

Note: The noted scholar Wendy Cooper said of this table, “The exuberance of the curves that completely define the form of this table, from its deeply shaped top, scrolled supports, and almost whimsical scrolled feet, market it as a distinctive American product.” The Egyptian marble top on this table was the most costly of the enhancements offered by the Meeks firm. The detail of a lightwood inlay on the foot of this example also attests to its sophistication. A similar table attributed to Meeks, though lacking the luxurious detail seen here, was sold by Neal Auction Company as lot 141, February 23, 2008. Ref.: Ibid, p. 217.

Ill.: The Magazine Antiques, Jan. 1986, p. 269. Note: The proportions, form, fine veneers and inlay on this sideboard are nearly identical to those on a sideboard purported to having had a label from John Shaw in the collection of Alexander Stewart. The form and proportions of this sideboard are also similar to those on a labeled mahogany sideboard made by Shaw for the Henry family of Annapolis.

318. Associated Suite of Eight American Federal Carved and Inlaid Mahogany Side Chairs, c. 1790‑1810, probably School of Haines and Connelly, Philadelphia, shaped rectangular back, swagged splat, inlaid saber legs, green woven haircloth upholstery; together with one near matching chair with straight legs, (9 pcs.) $2500/3500 Provenance: Three from Israel Sack, 1977; 5 found on Pine St., Philadelphia, reputedly descended in the Morris Family of that city; Estates of William and Sarah McGehee, Dr. Dubs House, Natchez, MS. Ill.: The Magazine Antiques, Jan. 1986, p. 269. Note: The tapering inlaid legs and the straight seat rails on these chairs indicate a Philadelphia maker, however the Sheraton motifs used for the splats may be seen in noted examples outside of Philadelphia as well. Eight chairs in this set are very close in form to the renowned suite of ten dining chairs in the Henry Craig Federal period room at the Metropolitan Museum of Art (acc.1971.180.16) and a pair of mahogany side chairs conserved at Wintherthur (acc. 57.1029.1, 2). The ninth chair in the lot offered here has a carved splat derived from plate 28 of Thomas Sheraton’s Drawing Book, and is similar to two well-known examples, one at Winterthur (acc. 57.772.1) and the other at the Baltimore Museum of Art.

Note: The distinctive legs on this table, with tapered reeding and a tall baluster foot, are typical of examples from the Philadelphia workshops of Ephraim Haines (1768‑1815) and Henry Connelly (1770‑1826).

Ill.: The Magazine Antiques, January, 1986, p. 270. Note: The use of choice mahogany veneers, well placed bronze mounts and white marble pilasters in harmony with the top and columns of the same material on this pier table are indicative of high style pier tables made in the New York workshops of Duncan Phyfe, Thomas Constantine, Michael Allison and Charles-Honoré Lannuier. The configuration of the back of this table, with a straight–cut board for the mirror back is similar to the usage by French expatriate cabinetmakers such as Lannuier.

Note: The linen fold “false” center stile, interior belt of drawers, and reeded legs on this armoire relate closely to an armoire probably made by Francois Seignouret in 1819 for the Casa Curial Bishop’s quarters adjacent to St. Louis Cathedral during the pastorate of Father Antonio de Sedella (Pere Antoine). Other known examples from this group which have side cabinets and brass ball feet as seen here include examples in the Fitzgerald, Judice, Whitecloud, Hopping and Crozat collections (the latter two sold by Neal Auction Company as lots 585, December 2, 1992 and 134 December 8, 2007, respectively).

The clustered columns in the background that form the pier that supports the archway are typically found in Gothic architecture. This style of architecture, which replaced the more cumbersome compound pier of its Romanesque predecessor, typifies French Gothic cathedrals, such as Amiens and the Notre Dame of Paris.

Provenance: Descended in the family of the sitter. Note: Maria Brewster Brooks was born in Westmoreland, New Hampshire, in 1809 and relocated to Tuscaloosa, Alabama, in 1834 to begin a teaching career at the Alabama Female Institute. She married Samuel McKee Stafford, a professor of ancient languages at the University of Alabama, and the couple had three children, Belle, Fred, and Alice. The family lived on campus at the University of Alabama until Professor Stafford’s health began to fail, and they were invited to manage the Alabama Female Institute. Mrs. Stafford performed the majority of the operations of the Institute, which she ran for 16 years, other than a brief period during the Civil War when the school was closed. After her husband’s death in 1873, she moved to New York to live with her daughter. The Alabama Female Institute became, in 1885, the Stafford School; it has subsequently been the site of the Hotel Stafford, and now is called Stafford Plaza. Ref.: The Tuscaloosa News, May 12, 1957.

440. George Rodrigue (American/Louisiana, 1944‑2013), “Untitled (Yellow Moon)”, 1990, oil on canvas, signed lower right, dated and inscribed “Blue Dog Series #12/ George Rodrigue” en verso, 40 in. x 30 in., original frame. $40000/60000 Provenance: Rodrigue Studio, New Orleans, LA. Note: The first incarnation of the Blue Dog appeared originally in George Rodrigue’s work in 1984 from his depiction of the Cajun legend of the loup-garou, a werewolf dog that lurked in sugar cane fields threatening to haunt (or eat, depending on the storyteller) misbehaving children. Following that first loup-garou, Rodrigue painted dozens of canvases over the next five years, depicting them in bayous and cemeteries within the Louisiana landscape. In 1989, the artist was featured in a solo show of contemporary paintings in Los Angeles that included around ten loup-garou paintings. Overhearing interested visitors referring to them as “blue dogs,”, Rodrigue’s first reaction was puzzlement. To him, the bluish-gray color of the dog was appropriate under the night sky and to the story, but he was left with the feeling that perhaps the California audience had recognized something new within his work. Upon his return to Louisiana in 1989, Rodrigue began to experiment with the image, making subtle changes that eventually resulted in the iconic Blue Dog known worldwide. During this same year, Rodrigue and investors opened The Rodrigue Gallery of New Orleans on Royal Street, just behind St. Louis Cathedral. In the beginning, the gallery exclusively sold the artist’s Cajun paintings, however with little success. In order to attract more attention during the 1990 Super Bowl XXIV held in New Orleans, Rodrigue decided to fill his gallery with Blue Dogs, thinking back to the success of that California show. The important early Blue Dog, “Yellow Moon,” offered here is only the twelfth of this series and was sold in the New Orleans gallery in early 1990, right around the time of the Super Bowl. This early Blue Dog changed very little from its loup-garou predecessors, still set amongst a Louisiana oak tree and tombstone, retaining the blue-grey color and discernible fur of the werewolf. Of note are the dog’s eyes, though still oval dog eyes rather than the later Blue Dog saucer eyes, the color is yellow rather than red. While Rodrigue’s Cajun paintings often required lengthy explanations and short history lessons to attract buyers, the Blue Dogs inspired people to walk into the gallery, ask few questions and ultimately buy the paintings - beginning a phenomenon that even the artist could not fully understand and which would continue throughout the rest of his career. That Super Bowl weekend, NBC News, People Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, and countless other news agencies photographed and filmed the Rodrigue Gallery window and interviewed George Rodrigue. By 1992, the Blue Dog was made even more famous when Michel Roux commissioned Rodrigue to paint Absolut Louisiana and Absolut Rodrigue for Absolut Vodka’s national ad campaigns. Soon after, Rodrigue did the same for Xerox, and by then, the Blue Dog’s national and international fame was cemented.

442. Jose‑Maria Cundin (Spanish/Louisiana, b. 1938), “Untitled: Pair of Figures in Hats”, 1982, oil on canvas, signed and dated mid‑right, 28 1/4 in. x 24 1/4 in., framed. $4000/6000 Note: Following his arrival in New Orleans in 1964, Cundin held an inaugural show at the historic Orleans Gallery on Royal Street in 1965, heralding a forty-year reciprocal love affair with the city. The show featured Cundin’s neo-figurative works that he painted from 19581989, when he abandoned them for formal abstraction. While the beloved diminutive grotesques are often compared to the work of Colombian painter Fernando Botero and other artistic traditions taking place in South America, Cundin’s figures are more expressionistic and European in tone, perhaps harking back to the artist’s roots in Spain. The work offered here exemplifies this early series, featuring two ironically humorous figures gesturing animatedly in a mysterious narrative that provides more questions than answers. Throughout his long career, Cundin has exhibited on three continents and has works in public, corporate, and private collections around the globe. Additional information at www.nealauction.com

Established by the Alabama painters John Kelly Fitzpatrick and Warree LeBron, the lakeside art colony existed from 1933 to 1948. Karl Wolfe was among the artists who gave their time to be instructors at the Dixie Art Colony, enjoying the stimulation and companionship of other painters. He met his wife, Mildred Nungester Wolfe of Decatur, AL, there in 1938. Karl Wolfe enjoyed a successful career in Jackson, MS, where he was best known for his portrait commissions and floral still life paintings. The work offered here is a beautiful still life composition showing a table set with a yellow tablecloth, providing a striking contrast to the blue dishes and colorful apples. Wolfe employs an effective use of perspective which differs from his more direct, traditional still life paintings. One can imagine the camraderous group of painters assembled at the Dixie Art Colony about to partake of a lovely summer meal.

CONDITIONS OF SALE Placing a bid at auction constitutes buyer’s acceptance of and agreement to these Conditions of Sale. 1. WAIVER OF WARRANTY: All lots are sold “AS IS”. No statement regarding condition, kind, value, or quality of a lot, whether made orally at the auction or at any other time, or in writing in this catalogue or elsewhere, shall be construed to be an express or implied warranty, representation, or assumption of liability. Any such warranty is WAIVED. Regarding works of art, Neal Auction Company does not make any express or implied warranty as to authorship. No statement in the catalogue or elsewhere, orally or in writing, shall be construed as an express or implied warranty, representation or limitation of liability as to authorship. Any such warranty is WAIVED. Buyer agrees and acknowledges that: (a) buyer is not relying on Neal Auction Company’s skill or judgment in selecting to purchase any lot; (b) no oral or written statements in the catalogue of Neal Auction Company or elsewhere regarding condition, attribution, kind, quality, value or authorship are the cause of or reason behind buyer’s purchase of any lot; (c) buyer would have incurred the purchase of any lot regardless of any oral or written statements about condition, attribution, kind, quality, value, or authorship made in the catalogue or elsewhere; (d) Neal Auction Company did not know and could not have known that condition, attribution, kind, quality, expressed value, or authorship is the cause or reason why buyer decides to purchase any lot; (e) buyer’s purchase of any lot is not intended to gratify a nonpecuniary interest; and (f) Neal Auction Company did not know, nor should it have known, that any oral or written statement about a lot in the catalogue or elsewhere would cause a nonpecuniary loss to buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing WAIVER OF WARRANTY, agreements and acknowledgements, Neal Auction Company may in its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to, consider any reasonable request for rescission of a sale on the basis of authenticity of authorship of a work of art under the following terms and conditions only, all of which must be met: A. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission regarding lots identified by Neal Auction Company by the terms “attributed to,” “school of,” “manner of,” “after,” or “signature of.” B. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission regarding any lot unless the buyer notifies Neal Auction Company in writing within a reasonable time from the date of the auction, and returns the lot to Neal Auction Company in the same condition that the lot was in at the time of sale. C. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission regarding any lot unless the buyer presents to Neal Auction Company a written document signed by a recognized art expert acceptable to Neal Auction Company that the lot in question is a forgery. D. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission to any person (including but not limited to the original buyer’s heirs, legatees, assigns, transferees, or subsequent purchasers) other than the original buyer, and any rights of the original buyer are not transferrable or assignable. E. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission when: (i) there is a conflict of expert opinion as to the authorship; (ii) expert opinion supported authorship at the time of sale, although expert opinion may have changed after the date of sale; and (iii) scientific processes that were unavailable, expensive or impractical at the time of sale have revealed since the time of sale that the author or period Neal Auction Company believed to be accurate at the time of sale was inaccurate. F. In any dispute between Neal Auction Company and buyer regarding authorship of a work of art, it is stipulated that rescission of the sale and refund of the price paid shall be the buyer’s sole recourse or remedy, if any is available, and Neal Auction Company shall not be responsible or obligated for any damages (including compensatory, general, incidental, exemplary or special damages), non-pecuniary losses, costs, expenses, injury, mental anguish, lost profits, attorney’s fees, or any other monetary or injunctive relief. 2. The auctioneer shall have absolute discretion in determining the successful bidder. At the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer, title to the offered lot will pass to the bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer. The bidder thereupon assumes full risk and responsibility and will pay full purchase price for the said lot.
